The Blue Period Collection one of My Pretty Zombie's older sets. A set of three wonderfully complex eyeshadows, each shadow is formed by a blue bases with added depth in different shades. The blue base in each shadow looks slightly different - I'm not sure if they started out as different colors entirely or if the mix caused them to become that way - and the added color shift comes across as an almost glowing highlight that brings a lot of dimension into each eyeshadow.


It's really hard to pick a favorite here. Though Forsaken is beautiful, I'm torn between ranking Infirmity or Dissolution as my number one pick from the three.

From the website: Purple/blue base

Eye Shadow Ingredients: mica, ferric ferrocyanide, synthetic flurophylogpite, silicon dioxide,carmine, titanium dioxide, tin oxide, magnesium myristrate

NOT VEGAN

Personal Comments: This is a shimmering pink highlight layered over a purple-based blue base. The blue is a deep color which really contrasts against the pink overlay. Applied over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. This picture was taken outside in natural light.

From the website: Turquoise/blue base

Eye Shadow Ingredients: mica, ferric ferrocyanide, synthetic flurophylogpite, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, tin oxide, glycidoxephenel ammonium, magnesium myristrate

VEGAN

Personal Comments: A little less interesting until you look more closely. The blue base here is very blue and though the green/blue shimmer blends in pretty well, it catches in the right light. Applied over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. This picture was taken outside in natural light.

From the website: Mossy green/blue base

Eye Shadow Ingredients: mica, ferric ferrocyanide, copper powder, synthetic flurophylogpite, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, tin oxide, magnesium myristrate

VEGAN

Personal Comments: A sea blue-green base with a gold-tinted green highlight. This shadow looks the most like something you might see in real life. If you looked closely at the sun's reflection off the ocean at sunset, this might be pretty close to what it looked like. Applied over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. This picture was taken outside in natural light.
